Are You Ready for Your Driving Test?
With your driving test just around the corner, it’s essential to ensure you’re fully prepared and avoid any last-minute surprises that could jeopardize your test. Here are some crucial things to consider:
1. Have You Got Your Licence?
Make sure you have your provisional driving licence with you on test day. The examiner will need to see it before taking you out for the test.
2. Is Your Car Roadworthy?
If using your own vehicle, ensure it’s safe and legal for the test. The examiner will inspect your car and may ask a ‘show me, tell me’ question about it.
3. Insurance
If driving to the test centre in your own vehicle, check that you have the appropriate insurance and are accompanied by someone with at least 3 years of driving experience.
4. Check Your Eyesight
Ensure you can pass the eyesight check before the test. Some instructors may not verify their pupils’ vision, so double-check yours to avoid any issues on test day.
5. Avoid Changing Instructors/Vehicles Before the Test
Try to maintain consistency with your instructor and vehicle to avoid any last-minute adjustments that could affect your performance.
6. Practice Driving in Various Weather Conditions
While you can’t control the weather, try to drive in different conditions before your test, such as rain or fog, to prepare yourself for any unexpected situations on test day.
By being aware of these potential issues, you’ll be better prepared and can focus on passing your driving test with confidence.
